Customer Ratings & Reviews

The speed alone won’t make you want to go back to the previous generation of consoles. A week playing will be enough to spoil you. Also, the quick resume feature is a very a nice addition and the updated controller rounds out an all around great package.

Easy to set up. Graphics look great. New controller feels and plays great. Does give off plenty of heat on top. Be careful where you position or place it. Allow adequate ventilation. I have temperature regulation fans in my tv console stand to ensure this and highly recommend one.

For sure the upgrade I needed. Load times on last gen games are instant, and runs most games better. I would recommend a newer tv so you can get the most out of the machine. If you don't have a 4k tv you wont see much of a graphical improvement. The controller is very similar to the xbox one controller, the share button is nice, and the grip is better on the back and triggers, but the best improvement so far is the d-pad. The best part of this new console compared to its competitor is the backwards compatibility with xbox, xbox 360, and xbox one games. As a bonus if you pay to unlock developer mode on the xbox (check youtube) you can even play emulated games as well including playstation 2, gamecube, etc. Overall an upgrade much needed. Only con is that it needs more next gen games, but thats what happens with most new consoles, needs a year or two to really see the true power. Only con at the moment is purchasing one, it took me a month, but bestbuy hooked me up.

What I can say. I was lucky enough to get one during one of Bestbuy's refreshes. First off, big thanks to Bestbuy for even allowing folks to get one. I appreciate them not allowing bots to just scope up all the inventory unlike Walmart and Target. As for the console, it reminds me of a subwoofer. It definitely does not look like the previous Xbox One X and it definitely runs faster. I love the 1TB SSD. Load times and performance are very noticeably faster. I brought this version so I could have the 4K Blu-ray player. In terms of gameplay, it seems to run cooler and does not make as much noise. The UI seems more refined. The cool thing is that a lot of Xbox One games get an enhanced feel and you can tell. All in all, despite the price, it is an upgrade. Hopefully, we will start seeing some real 8K content. I actually upgraded my smart TV just for this console alone. With 4K smart TVs going down in price, you will need one to really appreciate this console.

The Xbox Series X delivers a remarkable gaming experience with its powerful hardware and fast load times. The graphics are stunning, and the Game Pass library offers an impressive selection of titles. Its sleek design and quiet operation make it a perfect addition to any entertainment setup. Highly recommended for gamers!

This console is great. I highly recommend it if you already own Xbox games from previous generations. The ability to play almost all your games in form of discs is amazing. The design is nice, it fits almost anywhere, it's fast, and super accesible and easy to use.

I absolutely love the Xbox Series X. I've owned every Xbox console since Microsoft got into the video game business with the original Xbox console and this one is almost perfect. While a simple design, the console looks very clean and a nice addition to my collection of electronics used in the living room. The load time is incredibly fast and a much-appreciated upgrade from the previous consoles from earlier generations. The new controller is a slight upgrade from the controller on the Xbox One and very comfortable to play with. My two favorite things about the new Xbox Series X are the availability and performance of GamePass on it and the backward compatibility of games from previous systems. You can play on it almost every native Xbox One game, currently 568 Xbox 360 games, and 39 original Xbox games. I'm definitely glad I bought this system so early in the new generation period and highly recommend it to anyone who loves to play video games.

Good storage, graphics. and performance. Best Xbox yet

This thing is super fast and is a brick of a console! When I first unpacked this thing, it was huge compared to every other gaming console I’ve purchased. The load times for games is quick thanks to the SSD and the graphics, even on my TV that doesn’t support HDR, are fantastic.

Works great, it looks like a speaker but it does look modern as well. The control feels like same as the previous editions which I personally adore. Device runs quickly, graphics are great, storage is great, can't find something to complain about!

The newest Xbox delivers a premium gaming experience with it's new features and hardware upgrade. Very quiet while playing and it's new Quick Resume will have you jumping from game to game for rapid game sessions.

I haven’t played Xbox in years the last one I played was the original Xbox 1. The graphics have improved quite a bit and the load times were much faster. The console is no where near as big as I thought it would be and it is a lot nicer of a design than I thought before opening it. The controller is the same as the last Xbox 1 I had pretty much not much of a change there. I did also purchase a ps5 and it feels much more of a next gen console with their controller. That is the only reason I am giving this 4 stars. It doesn’t seem like that big of a jump from a console I last played that was made in 2013.

I was not expecting a huge improvement from this system since they weren't going to update the OS.... but what an incredible machine! Super easy to get up and running and lightening fast. I can load games in a quarter of the time my One X did and you can have multiple games running without interruption. I was playing Valhalla and my kids wanted to play a trivia game, after that we watched a movie on it. I went back to Valhalla the next day and picked up exactly where I paused it, no loading needed. The graphics are on another level compared to my One and One X. A quick calibration tutorial on the Series X and I was blown away. Valhalla looks absolutely gorgeous! Then I tried Ori and was completely amazed at the colors and detail. I am bit of a video connoisseur and audiophile and I can tell a huge difference with even watching movies and shows on this machine. I haven't been able to get a hold of a PS5 yet so I can't tell you the difference in that scenario.

Got this because I had a series S and wanted something with a disc drive and more power. The series X definitely delivers both, when i started playing Diablo 4 it was on the series S and when i switched to the series X I noticed the difference right away. Graphics were nicer and smoother, and the game play had improved dramatically. The series X compliments my xbox series 2 elite controller very well. I'll be honest I play my Xbox series X way more than I play my playstation 5 and i enjoy every minute of it.

Love this thing. Its simple to use right out of the box. Microsoft didn't get all fancy and change everything up which means if you owned a Xbox One, there is no learning curve on the menu screens. And just the power of this thing is unreal. From quick resume to graphics to just wow.

This thing is awesome! Paired with Xbox Gamepass, you have almost endless options. Graphics look great, paired with the right TV you can run 4K 120fps. I also have a Series S at work, this guy runs a bit smoother and the added storage is nice.

If you can get your hands on one buy it immediately! Never had any issues with mine and the graphics are amazing especially if you have a decent 4K HDR TV. It's very quiet even while gaming for a long time. Quick Resume and Gamepass make it even better.

Excellent gaming console, nice shape, conservative looking, easy to fit inside tv furniture. Just have to watch out to leave top (where warm air escapes) unobstructed. The Game Pass Ultimate subscription makes it a better value compared to PS5.

The loading speeds and graphical prowess of this console are second to none. While I’ll always want more internal storage since new games have exploded in size, it’s enough and it’s offset by the nearly quarter century of backwards compatible titles.

This console is sooo much better than the Xbox one. Beyond the obvious of just flat out awesome, vivid, stunning graphics. I can instantly switch between games, unlike the old Xbox. You don’t have to constantly wait for an update on every game. You go from game to game. No matter what you like, it is fun to take machine guns and go blast stuff all to heck in very realistic conditions. Graphics are stunning. Loads quickly. You really do need to get game pass ultimate. Yes, it’s like $15/month. But you won’t have to buy a bunch of $50 games. Completely worth it.
